WARNING: YouTube Collecting Pictures from Phones at Anytime WITHOUT PERMISSION - Big Brother Spy Camera!

Is YouTube spying on you? The following message is what my father Mike Bellow sent me this morning regarding a YouTube update on his phone that will allow YouTube to collect anything that your phone camera sees at anytime:

Mike Bellow
I was going to update YouTube on my Smartphone. I read the permissions. As worded, they can collect video or pictures of ANYTHING at ANYTIME! I took a screenshot of what I would be agreeing to. I am NOT updating YouTube with it worded as it is. I am advising others not to in this post.

YouTube update will allow ANYTHING you take with camera CAN be COLLECTED by ANYTIME by YouTube! If you accept the update you GIVE YouTube "Big Brother" unlimited access!! ALWAYS read what you are accepting!!!!
 

ACTUALLY, as worded, "...what the camera is seeing" combined with another NEW permission that starts YouTube when you start your phone (running in background) gives YouTube the ABILITY, AND PERMISSION, to "collect" pictures at "ANY TIME" WITHOUT SWITCHING to the camera function!!! We may NEVER know when they are "COLLECTING"!! Spread the word!
ANY LAWYERS OUT THERE WHO CAN COMMENT ON LEGAL WORDING?!?

It was not that long ago that I posted this article up on my blog about the Department of Homeland Security watching our blogs, Facebook posts and Twitter updates:

DHS Monitoring Blogs? David Bellow tells KETK NBC, “Good! They Might Learn Something!”

below is an article about my interview with KETK NBC that Texas GOP Vote posted on their website:

Texas GOP Vote blogger David Bellow was recently on KETK NBC in Tyler, TX to discuss the recent revelations that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been monitoring blogs and other social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Drudge Report and Huffington Post.

Basically, the DHS recently came out and said they have been monitoring social sites and blogs. They call it a social networking media capability program. They are doing this so that they can collect information used in providing situational awareness and establishing a common operating picture. That is a whole bunch of words. What they really should say is that they just want to see what is going on and they want to see what people are saying/reporting on their blogs.
Some people told KETK NBC that this was Big Brother and that they did not like it. When Bellow was asked about it he said, “I think that is great. They might learn something.”
Bellow went on to explain that when he puts something on a blog, “I am putting it out for the public to see. I want them to see it. So I am not at all bothered that they are reading it.”
Bellow is a conservative Republican blogger and he posts stories sometimes that the mainstream media does not know about or does not want to cover. He said that, “if the Department of Homeland Security is looking at blogs, I think that is a great idea because I think they could learn a lot.”
For instance, “If the DHS could not have been so politically correct and if they read some of the information that Major Nidal Hasan put on forums, they would have known that he was a Muslim terrorist and the entire Fort Hood Massacre could have been avoided. Of course, the Obama Administration believes that those soldiers died as a part of workplace violence only and not a part of a terrorist attack by a Muslim who hates America.”
Also, “the Obama Administration could really learn a lot about how dangerous the Mexican border is by reading blogs. If they read some blog then they would know about the violence from drug cartels that is spilling over onto American soil. They would know about the tens of thousands who have been killed along the border and about all the shootings with American law enforcement and drug cartels. Then Obama would not be coming to Texas making jokes about how we will not be happy until there is a moat with alligators. No, we just want to be safe from the violent drug cartels.”

Bellow does say that there would be an issue with storing information or accessing private information, but what he puts on a blog is put there for the purpose of being read and there is no expectation of privacy for what you put on a public online blog. The real problem right now is the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that was just passed and signed into law that allows Americans on American soil to be detained secretly without due process and without even a trial. That is the bigger problem we are facing right now.
